About this listen

In just 3-5 hours of training per week, you can gain 20-30 pounds of lean muscle and lose 15-25 pounds of fat in your first year—and see visible changes in your first month.

Bigger Leaner Stronger gives you a clear, science-based plan to build muscle, lose fat, and get strong—without wasting time in the gym, living on bland food, or falling for “bro science.”

Backed by hundreds of peer-reviewed studies and trusted by over one million readers, it’s a proven system that works for all ages and fitness levels.

Even better: You don’t need to obsess over “clean eating,” grind through punishing workouts, or do endless cardio. You just need a plan that works.

Inside, you’ll discover how to:

  • Bust the 10 biggest fitness myths and mistakes that keep most men small, soft, and stuck, so you can finally make consistent progress.
  • Build more muscle in less time with workouts designed around progressive overload—no marathon gym sessions or grueling cardio required.
  • Eat the foods you love with a flexible meal planning system that can include pizza, burgers, and more—no starvation diets required.
  • Stop wasting money on supplements with honest advice that exposes what’s hype, what’s useless, and the few products that actually work.
  • Follow a clear plan with a complete 12-month workout program, 20+ meal plans, and step-by-step progress tracking.
  • Stay motivated and consistent using practical strategies to overcome plateaus and build lasting habits.

Whether you’re new to lifting or tired of spinning your wheels in the gym, Bigger Leaner Stronger gives you the structure, knowledge, and confidence to finally achieve the body you want.

If you’re ready to break through the confusion, train efficiently, eat enjoyably, and see real, lasting results, this is the last fitness book you’ll ever need.

NA

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

No - some of the chapters on diet, routine & supplements are filled with information - I had to listen to these chapters several times over to check I was doing everything correctly.

Any additional comments?

I've been doing it only a month (5 times a week plus HIIT x3 times a week) & already seeing good results - I plan on completing the year and then re-revaluating my progress. I'm fairly new to body building so it was a perfect introduction for me. I'm very grateful I found this book. I feel more confident in the gym & just focus on my gains. Don't worry what other dudes are doing - just focus on your progress & your relationship with your health/body - this book is a good guide for that; no doubt about it. I think most PT's are scam artists, I've learned more from this book than any trainer I've ever had.
